"I don't want to train like you, the muscles are too big and ugly to die." Presumably, people of some years of fitness have heard this sentence, most of them are said by some fitness novices and people with small muscle mass. When they say this, they expose their inner uneasiness, because they know that they can't train that kind of muscle.
They like to ask questions about how much muscle they can grow in a month, but I want to tell them how difficult it is to grow muscle! It is no exaggeration to say that many people can gain more than ten pounds a month, but the muscle gain in this weight gain of more than ten pounds is likely to be less than 1 pound. Especially after the body matures, the muscle mass will be maintained at a certain level in the natural state, and the muscle mass can only be increased through hard training. In addition, muscles need to go through a process of destruction before they grow, that is, muscle excess recovery, which greatly delays the rate of muscle growth.
Dr. Michael Colgan said there was a record of growing up to 18.25 pounds (about 8.25 kilograms) of muscle in one year. At the same time, he also noted that "the speed at which proteins in muscles are converted causes us not to gain more than an ounce of muscle a day." "That is to say, a person growing close to 10.5 kilograms of muscle a year is already the limit." Note that this data is still obtained from professional athletes, and it is difficult for ordinary people to achieve this speed.
So some people want to say that even if you grow 10 pounds of muscle in a year, you can become a big muscle bully in 5 years. Unfortunately, it is time to punch the face again, and as the level of training increases, the growth rate of muscles will gradually slow down, or even stagnate. In addition, training is a difficult thing, the effect of training is not good, the effect of training is poor, which is more test of personal training experience and perseverance, it is really not as simple as you casually talk about it. It is worth mentioning that the level of male hormones in women's bodies is about one-twentieth that of men, and it is not difficult to imagine the difficulty of those girls to train some muscles.
Finally, the level of male hormones in the body can not promote more muscle growth, the bottleneck period is coming, it is time to choose whether to use hormones or not. As a result, many people choose steroid drugs. Some people have skyrocketed and received the highest honors for bodybuilding, while others have been deprived of their health by steroid drugs and left the market in a dim way.
So, are they unaware of the dangers of steroid drugs? Obviously, they know, even more than most people, its side effects, but still have no hesitation in choosing to use it. The reason is also very simple, because the muscles can give them a sense of accomplishment, and they are willing to pay for it! So every bodybuilding enthusiast or professional athlete is worthy of admiration.
At this point, you should know how hard it is to practice muscles. Keep training, say less about not wanting or not, or you'll really say something like "rest assured, you'll never be able to practice," Schwarzenegger said.
